Had a bit of a scare in my up last night, was driving back on a 15 mile journey with one of my friends back from another friends house.... it was rather windy as those of you in the south know we are having upto 80mph winds, and it was pitch black in the middle of no-where....
so the scene is set, all of a sudden what i thought was just a large twig appeared in the road, I tried to steer round it but it blew further into my path, so i ended up going over it.... the following noise was TERRIBLE!
nasty nasty twig was obviously stuck under the car, so we pulled over immediately and searched for said twig... well didnt take me long, had wedged itself just near the rear right hand wheel somewhere, so i pulled it out, turned out to be more like a branch, was a good 2 foot long and over an inch in diameter!! blummin thing, I'm just hoping it hasnt done any damage!
I have seemed to have used alot of petrol since, anyone know if the petrol tank is anywhere nearthe rear right wheel, I'm probably being paranoid tho...
